GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD8392A is comprised of four high output current, low
power consumption, operational amplifiers. It is particularly
well suited for the CO driver interface in digital subscriber line
systems, such as ADSL and ADSL2+. The driver is capable of
providing enough power to deliver 20.4 dBm to a line, while
compensating for losses due to hybrid insertion and back
termination resistors.

The AD8392A is available in two thermally enhanced packages,
a 28-lead
TSSOP/EP (AD8392AARE) and a 5 mm × 5 mm,
32-lead LFCSP (AD8392AACP). Four bias modes are available
via the use of two digital bits (PD1, PD0).
Additionally, the AD8392AACP provides V
pins for on-chip,
COM
common-mode voltage generation.
The low power consumption, high output current, high output
volt
age swing, and robust thermal packaging enable the
AD8392A to be used as the CO line drivers in ADSL and other
xDSL systems.

The AD8392A is capable of delivering 500 mA of output
current while swinging to within 2 V of either power supply
rail. The AD8392A also has a power management system
included on-chip. It features four user-programmable power
levels (three active power modes as well as the provision for
complete shutdown).
Rev. 0 | Page 7 of 12
AD8392A
www.BDTIC.com/ADI
APPLICATIONS
SUPPLIES, GROUNDING, AND LAYOUT
The AD8392A can be powered from either single or dual
supplies, with the total supply voltage ranging from 10 V to
24 V. For optimum performance, a well regulated low ripple
supply should be used.
As with all high speed amplifiers, close attention should be paid
to
supply decoupling, grounding, and overall board layout. Low
frequency supply decoupling should be provided with 10 µF
tantalum capacitors from each supply to ground. In addition, all
supply pins should be decoupled with 0.1 µF quality ceramic
chip capacitors placed as close as possible to the driver. An
internal low impedance ground plane should be used to provide
a common ground point for all driver and decoupling capacitor
ground requirements. Whenever possible, separate ground
planes should be used for analog and digital circuitry.
High speed layout techniques sho
uld be followed to minimize
parasitic capacitance around the inverting inputs. Some practical
examples of these techniques are keeping feedback traces as
short as possible and clearing away ground plane in the area of
the inverting inputs. Input and output traces should be kept
short and as far apart from each other as practical to avoid
crosstalk. When used as a differential driver, all differential
signal traces should be kept as symmetrical as possible.
POWER MANAGEMENT
The AD8392A can be configured in any of three active bias
states as well as a shutdown state via the use of two sets of
digitally programmable logic pins. Pin PD0 (1, 2) and Pin PD1
(1, 2) control Amplifier 1 and Amplifier 2, while PD0 (3, 4) and
Pin PD1 (3, 4) control Amplifier 3 and Amplifier 4. These pins
can be controlled directly with either 3.3 V or 5 V CMOS logic
by using the GND pins as a reference. If left unconnected, the
PD pins float low, placing the amplifier in the full bias mode.
Refer to the
urrent for each of the available bias states.
c
Specifications for the per amplifier quiescent
As is shown in Figure 13, the AD8392A exhibits low output
im
pedance for the three active states. The shutdown state
(PD1, PD0 = 1, 1) provides a high impedance output.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
When using a quad, high output current amplifier, such as the
AD8392A, special consideration should be given to system level
thermal design. In applications such as the ADSL/ADSL2+,
the AD8392A could be required to dissipate as much as 1.4 W
or more on-chip. Under these conditions, particular attention
should be paid to the thermal design to maintain safe operating
temperatures on the die. To aid in the thermal design, the
thermal information in the

bined with what follows here.
Thermal Resistance section can
The information in Tabl e 3 and Figure 3 is based on a standard
EDEC 4-layer board and a maximum die temperature of 150°C.
J
To provide additional guidance and design suggestions, a
thermal study was performed under a set of conditions more
closely aligned with an actual ADSL/ADSL2+ application.
In a typical ADSL/ADSL2+ line card, component density
ually dictates that most of the copper plane used for thermal
us
dissipation be internal. Additionally, each ADSL/ADSL2+ port
may be allotted only 1 square inch, or even less, of board space.
For these reasons, a special thermal test board was constructed
for this study. The 4-layer board measured approximately
4 inches × 4 inches and contained two internal 1 oz copper
ground planes, each measuring 2 inches × 3 inches. The top
layer contained signal traces and an exposed copper strip
¼ inch × 3 inches to accommodate heat sinking, with no
other copper on the top or bottom of the board.
Three 28-lead TSSOPs were placed on the board representing
six ADS
L channels, or one channel per square inch of copper,
with each channel dissipating 700 mW on-chip (1.4 W per
package). The die temperature is then measured in still air and
in a wind tunnel with calibrated airflow of 100 LFM, 200 LFM,
and 400 LFM.

TYPICAL ADSL/ADSL2+ APPLICATION
In a typical ADSL/ADSL2+ application, a differential line driver
is used to take the signal from the analog front end (AFE) and
drive it onto the twisted pair telephone line. Referring to the
typical circuit representation in Figure 18, the differential input
pears at V
ap
output is transformer coupled to the telephone line at tip and
ring. The common-mode operating point, generally midway
between the supplies, is set through V

In ADSL/ADSL2+ applications, it is common practice to
conserve power by using positive feedback to synthesize the
output resistance, thereby lowering the required ohmic value
of the line matching resistors, R
somewhat unique in that the positive feedback introduced via
R3 has the effect of synthesizing the input resistance as well.
The following definitions and equations can be used to calculate
the resistor values necessary to obtain the desired gain, input
resistance, and output resistance for a given application. For
simplicity, the following calculations assume a lossless
transformer.

MULTITONE POWER RATIO
The DMT signal used in ADSL/ADSL2+ systems carries data in
discrete tones or bins, which appear in the frequency domain in
evenly spaced 4.3125 kHz intervals. In applications using this
type of waveform, multitone power ratio (MTPR) is a commonly
used measure of linearity. MTPR is defined as the measured
difference from the peak of one tone that is loaded with data to
the peak of an adjacent tone that is intentionally left empty.
Figure 19 and Figure 20 show the AD8392A MTPR for a 5.5
est factor waveform for empty bins in the ADSL and extended

ADSL2+ bandwidths.
